The bonus only comes in acceleration (and handling if driving on a race track which you say you're not going to do), and will be minimal given that each wheel and tire weights 55lbs.
There is no direct conversion of unsprung weight to static weight. Yes, removing unsprung weight is always beneficial but trying to save a few pounds on a street car doesn't make much sense. I didn't notice any dramatic acceleration performance improvement when I went to 2-piece rotors and AP calipers.
